  • The SE Bushwhacker camper gathering gave us the opportunity to tour and review some amazing teardrop trailers. I couldn't believe the mods and rebuilds that people were able to do to their Free Solo and Bushwhacker campers. Check out Allie's camping trailer and truck for some inspiration!

    Hi Allie. The interior of your camper is very cozy looking. You have great ideas.

    Okay Brian - I am doing it. I have watched about 50% of your posted videos and have decided that the Bushwhacker (10HD - 2022) is what I need for my starter teardrop trailer. I will be heading from Dallas to Austin to get it early next month. We got the hitch on our Pathfinder a couple years ago and are getting the 7 pin & Brake Controller installed tomorrow. I am very excited!

    Do you know if Allie would/could run her a/c off of her battery mod?

    • @DIYOutdoorLife
      @DIYOutdoorLife  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      No, her set up is very modest. Getting the AC to run on battery is possible, but very expensive.

    My dad bought a patriot power supply and gets a little upset if I say anything bad about it. But he doesn't actually use it! He just has it for emergencies. I think a lot of people just buy them for emergencies and will have an unpleasant surprise if they actually have to depend on them for a real power outages.
    Great job on the tour. It's nice to see what clever things people use to make camping great!

    • @DIYOutdoorLife
      @DIYOutdoorLife  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I agree. I feel bad saying negative things about anything, but I don’t like to see people be taken advantage of. It’s really bad for a high price tag…

    Brian,
    I’m starting to feel like a DIY groupie. I watch all of your videos and We own a Grand Design 5th wheel. I wanted a much smaller Escape, but sometimes you have to compromise.
    I just wanted to thank you for passing on your knowledge, it prevents mistakes and saves a bunch of time. We’ve taken your advice with AGM batteries, solar panels and controller. We ordered the fire pit you recommended yesterday, it looks awesome and I would have never found that pit.
    If you’re ever camping next to someone with an Oliver Travel Trailer, try and do a video. I’ve wanted to see one for a couple of years and I finally got the chance yesterday it was super nice. Super expensive, but really nice quality, your viewers maybe interested.
    Keep up the great work and thanks again.

      I’m thrilled that you’re liking the channel! I really appreciate that you subscribed and watched videos, we couldn’t do this if people weren’t watching.
      I will certainly keep my eye out for an Oliver trailer, always looking for exciting things to put on the channel. Thanks for tuning in, you are the best!

      A canopy that is free standing or an awning that is attached to the Bushwhacker?

    What I like about her setup is how little power she uses. That's my goal - to use as little power as possible. And the 5-gallon water jug with the hand pump is a nice touch. Her galley really looked packed to the gills!

    • @DIYOutdoorLife
      @DIYOutdoorLife  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Exactly, there’s a nice balance. Sometimes I like a sleeping bag, lighter, and a pup tent… other times I set it up like a 5 star hotel 🤣
      I love having the option. She almost exclusively dry camps and has a great low power set up. 10w panel on BW and 100w on Ecoflow. Really nice to learn from all these people.
